[PATCH v2 1/4] Documentation: mmc: Document mmc aliases

From: Douglas Anderson
Date: Fri Apr 29 2016 - 13:33:38 EST


From: Jaehoon Chung <jh80.chung@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Now, index of mmc/mmcblk devices is allocated in accordance with probing
time. If want to use the mmcblk1 for some device, it can use alias.

aliases {
mmc0 = &mmc0; /* mmc0/mmcblk0 for eMMC */
mmc1 = &mmc2; /* mmc1/mmcblk1 for SD */
mmc2 = &mmc1; /* mmc2/mmcblk2 for SDIO*/
};

If there are no corresponding values, it might be allocated with
existing scheme.
